Pregnancy Yoga

Pregnancy Yoga, Postnatal Yoga and Baby Yoga

Forty Weeks yoga for pregnancy is accessible to all women, whether you are a dedicated yoga practitioner or new to the idea.

Yoga is increasingly recommended to pregnant women because it is a gentle way of maintaining or gaining fitness while reducing anxiety with breathing and relaxation techniques. As a midwife, my aim and intention in the classes are to prepare you in body and mind for the birth of your baby. I focus on back relaxers, hip openers, positions for optimal foetal positioning, pelvic floor (toning and relaxing) and most of all, deep relaxations.

My personal experience of Yoga is far beyond the postures and enables us to access a place of deep relaxation and awareness through a combination of postures, movement and breath work.

These classes are about honouring our space as women in one of the most significant cycles of womanhood and it extends with the same philosophy into the postnatal period with classes that tone, heal and rejuvenate body and mind.

And of course, there are the baby yoga classes, which is a wonderful addition to your time getting to know each other.
